Just bought a Revo!
I have a Savy 25 and have loved it, I have it very well kitted out and set up for racing...I got beat by some Revos at the track pretty bad though so I went and bought one.
I just don;t understand how it could be so much faster...yes it's got a lower CG, but it weighs comparible and has a smaller motor. Somone fill me in on how cool my new truck is compared to my wanna be racer Savage.

RE: Just bought a Revo!
I just unpacked it and got it all set up and charged for tommorrow. I can't wait to check it out. So far I don't like the build of the bumpers, other than that she looks proper. I'm concerened it's a little under powered but I'll have to wait and see.
I really like the adjustability and suspension. My head is spinning from all the different possible settings. Anyone use the LT rockers for racing? My local track doesn't have real big jumps and is pretty smooth on the fast stuff.

RE: Just bought a Revo!
I too just recently got a REVO and I an very happy with it. I am guessing the reason the REVOs beat you on the track was because of the REVOs ability to hug the ground. I know mine hugs real tight on most big bumps and smaller whoops. I just took my long travel swing arms off and replaced them with the P1s with 50 wt shock oil and I am very happy with that set up. I also put the green springs on the front and put the tan ones on the back. Here is a link that I found here. It's pretty usefull I learned a lot from it.
